Teacher Quality Forum Panelists: Educators Must Be Heard
Teacher quality will be the focus of impending debate on reauthorization of the ESEA Act
July 3, 2010
By Michelle Hudgins and Cynthia McCabe
Teacher quality will be the focus of impending debate on reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, but educators must be heard on the issue, said panelists at a forum here yesterday.
At the Trends In Teacher Quality: Are We Headed In The Wrong Direction? forum, NEA President Dennis Van Roekel and Executive Director John Wilson challenged educators to become leaders in their schools and districts.
"Teacher quality is at the center of education policy debates," said Segun Eubanks, director of NEA's Teacher Quality department and moderator for the panel discussion. "But whether policy will support teachers and their profession—or blame them for public schools' failings—remains to be seen."
And what role does NEA intend to play? The Association is working with members and state affiliates to identify critical issues surrounding teacher effectiveness, evaluation and professional learning and they're using that information when discussing education reform with the Obama administration, Eubanks said. They're also encouraging NEA members to talk to their elected officials about what they feel will help fulfill the promise of quality public education for every student.
Panelists included Dr. Mary Hatwood-Futrell, former dean of the Graduate School of Education and Human Development at George Washington University, Dr. Nancy Zimpher, chancellor of the State University of New York, and Andy Coons, National Board Certified Teacher and technology facilitator from the Tacoma (Washington) school district.
Hatwood-Futrell, an internationally recognized expert in teacher preparation and education reform, reinforced NEA's call for teachers to become professional activists.
"Teachers need to be taught to be leaders, not just in their classrooms, but also in their schools and districts," Futrell said. "In accepting the role as leaders, teachers should not only look at and identify problems, they should commit to being part of the team that is looking for solutions. It's then that we will begin to see a change in the teaching and learning environment."
"NEA is committed to teacher quality reform and to supporting and redefining teacher effectiveness," NEA's Eubanks said in closing the session. "This reform will be successful only when teachers —not bureaucrats or politicians— are at the center of teacher development and accountability policy."
Eubanks noted afterward that it was significant to hear the panelists talk about the importance of collaboration among state and local education associations, K-12 districts and universities.
"There was an overarching recognition that NEA is well-positioned to lead these collaborative K-20 relationships," Eubanks said.Learn more about NEA's positions on teacher preparation, assessment and evaluation on nea.org.

As this week's snowstorm turns into an ice storm, we figured that it would be a good time for a Q&A re: winter storms and insurance claims. For more, please see our winter weather page.
My neighbor's tree fell on my house. Who pays?
Usually your insurance, even if it was the neighbor's tree. And you'll be responsible for the deductible.
Sometimes your insurer can prove the neighbor was at fault (diseased tree, etc.) and make their insurer pay. But that can be hard to prove.
If possible, take steps to prevent further damage. For example, you might try to cover holes in walls or the roof, but only if it's safe to do so. Beware of snow, ice, and falling limbs.
And save your receipts: Your insurer may reimburse you for those costs.
A tree fell on my car or carport. Am I covered?
Car: Yes, if you have comprehensive coverage.
Carport: Yes, usually your homeowners coverage will usually cover the damage. But unattached buildings – like a garden shed – are often not covered.
Lots of limbs fell in my yard. Will an insurance company pay for cleanup?
Usually not. Homeowners insurance is mainly for the home.
Lost power and freezer thawed. Am I covered?
Most homeowners policies cover this, but it may not be worth filing a claim, esp. if you have a high deductible.
I'm concerned about flooding. Will I be covered?
Probably not. A standard homeowners insurance policy doesn't cover floods. You have to buy a separate policy, usually through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
My television set was ruined when the power came back on. Am I covered?
Most homeowner policies do cover appliances ruined by power surges. But consider your deductible -- in many cases, it may be more than the cost of simply replacing the damaged equipment.

The worst of winter is yet to come for 2.2 million refugees living outside Syria and millions more displaced inside the country.
A storm named Alexa is sweeping across Syria and Lebanon, bringing with it high winds and freezing temperatures - and marking the beginning of the third winter since the Syrian conflict began in March 2011.

This is more like a form of body worship, after a small amount of relaxation breathing, you will be asked to lie on a bed to simply relax. I will slowly begin to stroke and caress you all over, with my hands, and through the healing power of touch, I will take you out of the "think -and –do" and into the "relax –and- feel". You will feel yourself slowly melting under my hands and your breathing deepen as you drift away into a near state of unconsciousness. You will let yourself be enveloped by pleasure.
I will heighten all your senses as your nerve endings tingle all over your body. I will heighten your places of pleasure that you had forgotten existed. This will be your first step in pleasure training, and the finale to this sensual massage will be a couple of walks up "The horny mountain" ending in what we hope will be an exaggerated orgasm.
The "Horny Mountain" is a phrase used to describe the progression towards and then away from the orgasm. A journey of crests and troughs if you like. Every time you get close to your orgasm, the brain tells the prostate to secrete pleasure hormones and the more you do this, the extra hormones you have.
I suppose it should really be called the "Horny Volcano" because of the intense release at the end, caused by the all over body massage prior to it and all the extra hormones being released into the system.
It is an ancient system of spirituality and recently, more commonly a way of life. For those who feel passionate about it, can truly enjoy, appreciate and blossom within it!Read more

Lucas Terrier
Veterinarian Reviewed on December 6, 2008 by Dr. Janice Huntingford
Physical Characteristics
Breed Group:
Terrier, but not formally recognized.
Approximately 11-20 pounds.
Approximately 9-12 inches.
A Frost Lucas Terrier can be any shade of tan while an Irwin Lucas Terrier should have a white coat with markings in colours such as black, tan, or badger-grey.
The weather resistant coat consists of harsh fur and is of medium length.
Lucas Terriers are friendly dogs that get along well with people and other dogs. Intelligent and delightful, these dogs are very affectionate and charming companions.
Country of Origin:
Great Britain.
This rare breed was purposely developed in Great Britain during the 1940's by Sir Jocelyn Lucas who crossed Norfolk Terriers with Sealyham Terriers. Later, other Lucas Terrier owners continued breeding these dogs, keeping the breed alive. In the 1980's in Great Britain, the Lucas Terrier Society was formed and was later renamed the Lucas Terrier Club. In 2006, the Lucas Terrier Club of America was formed.
This breed was named for its developer, Sir Jocelyn Lucas. While the names are confusingly similar, the Lucas Terrier and the Sporting Lucas Terrier are two distinct breeds.
The Lucas Terrier has a calm temperament and is eager to please. These characteristics make the breed good with children and easy to train.
These smart and eager to please dogs are easy to train.
Lucas Terriers are lively and require daily exercise and activity.
Lucas Terriers are suitable for both town and country life as long as they receive daily walks and have access to a yard. These dogs typically only bark when someone is approaching the door and are otherwise quite quiet. Friendly and loving, Lucas Terriers are great companions for families and children. As a low maintenance breed, the Lucas Terrier requires weekly brushing and occasional bathing.

Hearsay Social, the social media platform provider whose mission is to help advisors and financial services firms embrace "social selling" to grow their businesses, just received a new round of funding and recently signed up a bevy of new financial services firms as clients.
The San Francisco-based social media firm, launched in 2009, announced Thursday that it has raised an additional $30 million in Series C funding led by existing investors, Sequoia Capital and NEA, bringing its total funding to $51 million.
New companies have also signed on in the past six months as clients, with the most recent being Raymond James and LIMRA. Raymond James, which partnered with Hearsay in July, is now offering Hearsay's platform to its 6,000 advisors, while LIMRA announced recently that Hearsay is its exclusive Elite Strategic Partner, becoming the endorsed social media solution for LIMRA member companies.
Companies that signed on to use Hearsay's platform in the last six months are Mutual of Omaha, Bank of the West, Nationwide Insurance, Allianz Global Investors, Wunderlich Securities, Modern Woodmen of America, SWBC, RPM Mortgage, Mortgage Master and two Canadian Chartered banks.
Gary Liu, recently hired as VP of marketing as part of Hearsay's executive push, says the companies are now in "various stages" of rolling out Hearsay Social as part of their social sales programs.
"The way that today's customer — retail and institutional — makes buying decisions is increasingly influenced by online and social media sources," Clara Shih, Hearsay Social's CEO, and a ThinkAdvisor blogger, told ThinkAdvisor in an interview Wednesday. Clients' "buying decisions have fundamentally shifted," so the way that an advisor 'sells' must shift as well. Hearsay's "role is to help advisors hone the right 'trigger events'" that their clients tell them about via Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn, such as the birth of a child, marriage, or pending retirement — all "life events that push people to get financial help," Shih says.
"Clients are sharing these life events, or buying signals, on social media," Shih continues, which creates the perfect "opportunity for advisors to personalize their message based on what's happening in people's lives." Emails, she says, have become an "impersonal" way to reach clients, and "most emails don't get opened."
What do advisors get from Hearsay's platform? The Hearsay Social platform, as Liu explains, is "a SaaS application that advisors can access via any device to hear and respond to the most relevant things that their customers and prospects are 'saying' on top social networks, including Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Google+."
Key features, Liu says, include: "Social Signals," a feature that alerts advisors about important events in the lives of the people in their network, as well as a content library that allows advisors to easily share compliance-approved content and links across their social networks with just a few clicks.
Shih says Hearsay has broken social selling into four steps: First is to "be findable," she says. "It's not acceptable when a client searches for you and you're not there" on Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn, for instance. "You have to be there."
Second is to grow your firm and network. Third is to "listen/hear what's going on in your clients' lives, [understand] their life events." Fourth, establish credibility and build your brand. "We view our role as helping [firms] operationalize" that, Shih says.

I called my drug rep, and he was actually quite nice, and dropped off a case of your damn pills. It was easy, because his company accidentally sent him a case of samples labeled in Spanish that was meant for a neighborhood across town. So he was happy to contribute it to your care, instead of having to fill out the paperwork to send it back to his company.
They are the same damn pills. You can see them through the plastic. The same pill name and pictures are on the same damn box. You can see that for yourself.
I am trying to help you. So don't stand in my damn lobby and yell at me and Mary because you don't want "pills for Mexicans". You want free pills? Here they are. I wrote the instructions out in English, for crying out loud.
You are the losers who stomped out because I didn't have pills with English packaging, and now you're calling back. Sorry, but now that you've gone home and realized how much it costs to buy the same pills, it's too late to have a change of heart. I'm going to give them to a decent, non-bigoted person. And don't whine to me about how you may not have enough money to buy them. You had your chance at a damn month of free pills, and stomped out with attitude.

"Dear Footwear Staff,
I bought these hard-to-find shoes for my brother who is stationed overseas. He just received them and he loved them. I am happy because I had looked everywhere for these specific MBT shoes (my brother happens to be very picky and fussy about his shoes) and it was only until I ran into Footwear etc. that I found what he wanted, according to his instructions.
I am so happy with the purchase that I will shortly buy him another pair of MBT's, which as he says are the best solution for his lower back pain. Also, I loved the professional way Footwear etc. helped me solve a slight problem we had with my European Credit Card, and well, companies like Footwear etc. are a living proof that ethical, efficient business are the real American way.

When we lived in California, a friend made these for us at Christmas. Once we moved here, I found myself missing those light, moist loaves, dotted with candied fruit and blanketed with thick frosting. So I hunted up this recipe and started making them. The cardamom gives the bread a wonderfully distinctive flavor. —Carol Mead, Los Alamos, New Mexico
Total TimePrep: 25 min. + rising Bake: 35 min.
Makes2 loaves
- 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar, divided
- 1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
- 3/4 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 5 to 5-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups chopped mixed candied fruit
- 1/2 cup golden raisins
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Red and green candied cherries
- In a bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in water; let stand for 5 minutes. Add milk, butter, egg, salt, cardamom, 2-1/4 cups flour and remaining sugar. Beat until smooth. Stir in fruit, raisins and enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
- Punch dough down; shape into two loaves; place in two greased 8x4-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
- For frosting, combine sugar, butter and milk until smooth; spread over loaves. Decorate with cherries.

Revolutionary Women
Marx's Daughters: Eleanor Marx, Rosa Luxemburg, Angelica Balabanoff
Five Sisters: Women Against the Tsar
The titles of both books under review have the ring of contributions to a fashionable cult: an impression confirmed in the case of the first by the anxious propitiation of the cult's priestesses on page 10: "I have referred to the heroines of this book throughout by their first names or nicknames, not through any measure of condescension or disrespect…." The author's sincerity is not to be doubted; he treats his subjects in the characteristic style of those eager to be counted in the ranks of the unprejudiced: self-conscious respect verging on sentimentality (page 190: "Angelica was determined to remain loyal—but to whom, to what?").
The introduction raises portentous issues: "Almost unique among the great ideological movements of the nineteenth century, socialism numbered women among its leadership. Were they to be treated as 'men'?…And could a movement as patriarchal in its origins…as Marxism ever adapt itself to the real, rather than the rhetorical, equality of women?" But little enlightenment on these questions is to be gained from the ensuing chaotic jumble of reflections on women and on Marxism.
The first study in Mr. Florence's book is of a woman of middle-class background and education, whose position as Marx's daughter encouraged her to dabble in advanced ideas, feminist and socialist, crowning her rebellion by an adulterous and unhappy union with a disreputable member of the socialist fringe. Marx's bourgeois attitudes with regard to his own family are too well known to surprise many people, and this study is of interest only to those who want Victorian scandal and anecdote.
The other two studies in Marx's Daughters center on the political careers of Angelica Balabanoff and Rosa Luxemburg, both daughters of well-to-do assimilated Jewish families, one Russian, the other Polish, who both devoted their lives to Marxist socialism. We are taken on a breathless tour around the monuments of Marxism—the Second International, Bernstein, Plekhanov, Lenin, Zimmerwald, Spartacus, the Comintern, with a commentary geared to journalistic cliché ("Already nationalism was rearing its ugly head." "Nowhere was treason a popular cause in the summer of 1914"). The essay on Balabanoff has the merit of attempting to rescue from obscurity a thinker about whom too little has been written, in spite of her role in the forefront of the international socialist antiwar movement inaugurated at Zimmerwald in 1915, and her curious relationship as teacher and confidante with the young Mussolini, whom she helped in 1902 to rescue from destitution and to educate in socialism, later editing with him the Italian socialist organ Avanti.
However, there is no such justification for the essay on Rosa Luxemburg, whose importance as a theorist and opponent of Lenin's centralism has earned her, quite apart from J.P. Nettl's monumental biography (which makes no apology for calling her Rosa), a plethora of studies, large and small, to which this adds nothing.
Ironically, the book's epigraph, Turgenev's prose poem on a Russian woman…

I think the real imperative behind the poll is so that Yellow Warrior in Tug of War will FINALLY be made after all these years and unprecedented fan demand (I mean we are talking bigger demand than there is for those art prints at Matty)!!
Thanks Toy Guru for having our backs!!
Good stuff Toyguru!! I picked her #1 in my rankings as well
She is a very cool looking character and her connection to Emiliano/Val is a definite added bonus.
For the record, even if she was not created by Emiliano/Val, I would have ranked her #1 on my list!! I really dont have any strong nostalgic connection to the others in the poll, and she just looks the best
Will each subscriber get one vote per subscription?????? I buy 3 subs and would like to cast 3 votes for Illumina!!!

Yes, I get a sub specifically so I can see what the experience is and try to constantly improve it. (plus it is the only way I can get final product, the review samples always have something wrong and I want final product on my shelf darn it!)
And yes, you get one vote for each sub you buy. It will likely be done as a code which lets you log on and vote with each code. One code per sub buy. So if you buy 3 subs you get 3 codes.

From the beginning of 2k MOTU we were introduced to the Gar race. Keldor was a Gar, yet Randor, Adam, Adora, and the other royals in the Filmation cartoon were all white skinned. But Randor and Keldor were supposed to be brothers. This set up fan expectations for something big IMO. Miro was white so where did Keldor get that heratage from? I believe fans have been in love with the Idea of a Gar / blue skinned woman as Keldor/Skeletor's mother for a while now. I have seen many conversations about this on the org over the years and more recently on facebook and matty collector. For years some fans posed it was Shokoti (something I am not a big fan of) but I understood the desire for a blue skined woman to play the roll of Keldor's mother. Fans made the association between Keldor and Shokoti as it just makes sense.
I can't speak for others, but the identity of Skeletors mother has been a question I have been asking and pondering from all the way back in the 80's. For me this question was set up the first moment Miro apeared on that episode of POP. Then came the Search For Keldor mini comic, was Skeletor Keldor? But if he and Randor were brothers and Miro was their father then how could they have been so different...They must have had a different mother. The MYP 2K MOTU carton answered the first part of the riddle, how Kedor became Skeletor. But Keldor was a Gar he either must have had a different mother to randor or both he and Randor had the same mother, or Skeletor was Gar through a genetic through back?
After wanting to have the question of Skeletor's mother answered for years I can remember seeing that print add and instantly my first thought was thats her!!!! I had been waiting so long to finally learn about her and there she was in my mind. Other fans at the time were posing the same thing. Later Val and Emiliano confirmed that she was infact not Keldor's mother. She played a very different roll, but that didn't matter to me, the passion I had for Skeletor's mother had finally risen to the surface and imprinted onto Illumina.
From that point on Illumina resinated with me and as Emiliano and Val slowly told us more about her, my passion for the character grew. She also has a very cool design, great powers and a very unique weapon. This chick was as hard as nails and you could see it, which helped me like her even more. She just seemed to fit the MOTU world. Finally the He-Man.org connection cemented her in my all time faviourate want list.
Illumina represents something that has been missing in MOTU, from all the way back to the old line and it's media...The story of Infinita, Skeletor's home world and his people, Keldor and who was his Mother. Illumina ushered in all this for me plus the idea of unrest and racism on Eternia beyween the Gar and the natives, which was a dark new angle and makes Skeletor's origins and motives even cooler IMO.
I loved the way Infinita was woven into Illumina's story, along with the idea of Skeletor's people being refugees on Eternia. I loved hearing about Infinita from the very first mini comic, but the idea that a small remenant had escaped to Eternia before the distruction of infinita occured, and were now fighting back against the oppression of their people by the native Eternian's was so cool. Knowing Illumina was involved in these tensions in her eariler days (before becoming involved with the Protector's of Grayskull's secrets) gave her a dark edge and we all love bad girls that go good right She-Ravers!!!!
I want her today as much as I wanted her then. Illumina is a cool character and IMO through the creation of this character Val and Emiliano tapped into something I think many fans had played out in their heads and wanted to see represented in MOTU and still do.....Wanting to know more about the gar, what caused these tensions between the Gar and Eternians and finally who was Skeletor's mother. Maybe Mattel will supprise us and create Skeletor's mother as one of the 30th anniversary figures.
In short scott fans went nuts over Illumina back in the day and have continued to passionately support her because we have been waiting for a character like this in Masters of the Universe for a very long time. We also know that if the 4H got a chance to sculpt her, with their skills and Emiliano's fantastic MOTUC design Illumina would make a sensational figure for our collections.

Thanks, Scott. Was glad to see all this and hope some of the posters here didn't get you down. I think everyone here loves the line and is passionate about it. I think that is why moods swing so wildly.
Etherian Rebel JOSH for the MOTUC (see my avatar)!
I love Scooter!
Illumina as Keldor's mother would make me very happy actually. Other than that, yes she looks great and interesting, but most of my fascination and hope for her stems from my devotion to Val and Emiliano.
Regardless, while she wasn't at the top of my votes, I wouldn't be bothered at all if she won.
MOTUC Most Wanted: Skeleteen, Prince Keldor, Captain Randor, The Great Black Wizard, Lady Slither, Spirit, Tuvar, Baddra, Cursed Marzo, Tug-O-War, Scrollos, Songster, Mini-Comics Spirit of Castle Grayskull, and for the love of the Sorceress and Julie Winston, ODIPHUS!!!

Thank you, Scott for the post, and the opportunity to vote. This was a good move!
Any opportunity that gets the fans/collectors involved/interacting makes them value their investment in the product more.
It's always good to read or watch your communiques...it keeps me from panicking. I hope to see this line go into the next decade.

Illumina means nothing to my collection until I have a Gwildor in my hands. This news is irrelevant.
"We are the tools of our own imagination, constructing temples and cathedrals in which our most outlandish dreams become truth." - Samael
Iluminata or Iluminati..never heard of her..all the rest, obscure as they are, I have heard of them...except for yellow guy...hillarious.
So Illumina was the least wanted on my list and was shocked to see her leading after I voted. After learning the creator of this website created this character..and this creator has many loyal friends supporting this website, it does not surprise me that this is the way it will play out.
If we get Illumina over Camo Kahn or Strobo (not to say Illumina is a bad character just no history there) for a vintage collector..that sucks.

Think you have a tough week ahead of you? Well, it's probably not as hard as what Brit Mike Cotty is taking on in just the first 36 hours of August 5 and 6.
Starting early Monday morning in central France, Cotty is attempting to ride non-stop through the heart of the French Alps from Evian Les Bains to Nice, a distance of 414 miles that includes a jaw-dropping 17 alpine passes.
This murder's row of mountains includes the Col de la Colombière, Madeleine, Glandon, Croix de Fer, Télégraphe, Galibier, Izoard, Vars, Bonette and Madone. All told it's over 52,000 feet elevation gain, including five cols over 6,500 feet.
Add it all up and it's comparable to four mountain stages of the Tour de France or close to scaling Mount Everest twice — non-stop.
Why put oneself through so much pain? Cotty calls adventures such as these moments of, "escapism, intrigue and respect to the high mountains that is the true inspiration for such a ride. Every rider is unique in their motivation. The desire to discover both physical and mental limits in search of new experiences comes from deep within. Life is not a race, it's a journey. Sometimes on familiar roads and other times following a path into the unknown."
You can see photos from this ambitious ride on the Mavic Facebook Page, or scroll down to find real time tracking information. There is also a great gallery of sights he'll encounter along the way. Good luck, Mike.

Ten years flying in formation: The legendary Cluster quartet
Today marks the 10th anniversary of the start of formation flying for the four satellites of ESA's Cluster quartet, one of the most successful scientific missions ever launched.
On 1 September 2000, just a few weeks after launch, the four individual satellites of the Cluster mission began coordinated orbits, marking the formal start of formation flying.
Since then, the four satellites — dubbed Samba, Tango, Rumba and Salsa — have gone on to collect some of the most detailed data ever on the physical properties of space between Earth and the Sun, and on the interactions between the charged particles of the solar wind and Earth's atmosphere. In all, over 2.6 terabytes of data — enough to fill 3300 CDROMS — have been delivered from space.
The Cluster mission was lofted into orbit in two dual launches on Soyuz boosters from Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, on 16 July and 9 August 2000.
Cluster provides a decade of results
Cluster's results have enabled scientists to construct a three-dimensional model of the magnetosphere and to understand better the processes taking place inside it. Since 2000, over 1200 scientific papers have been published in hundreds of journals using Cluster data, making an enormous contribution to our understanding of the Solar System.
Throughout the decade, one critical requirement has been the need for continuous flight control, which has been managed by the Cluster Mission Operations team at ESA's European Space Operations Centre (ESOC).
Ten years of mission control expertise
Supported by flight dynamics specialists, mission planning engineers and ground station controllers, Cluster operations engineers have been responsible for retrieving the scientific data produced by the four spacecraft, regularly sending up commands to operate the spacecraft and their scientific instruments and manoeuvring the spacecraft in their precise orbits.
Twice per year on average, the formation has undergone a major realignment, with inter-spacecraft distances being adjusted by tens of thousands of kilometres through a series of thruster burns. This provides the precise changes in positioning required by the science investigators who manage the 11 instruments mounted on each satellite.
Orbiting just 17 kilometres apart
At one point, in June 2007, Samba and Tango were orbiting just 17 km apart — the closest ever that two ESA spacecraft have achieved in routine operations. To date, the satellites have been commanded through 771 manoeuvres — an enormous number in spacecraft navigation terms.
"For the past decade, mission operations have succeeded through a combination of skill, initiative, teamwork and intense effort. Everyone on the team can be proud of a significant scientific and technical achievement," says Juergen Volpp, Cluster Spacecraft Operations Manager.
Like any 'old-timers', the Cluster satellites are showing wear after years of continuous exposure to the harsh radiation environment around Earth. However, with the exceptions of the batteries, all major systems are still functioning well. Engineers have devised ingenious work-arounds to account for battery issues and the normal reduction in electrical power as the solar panels degrade.
Cluster's return on investment
The Cluster mission, originally planned for 27 months, is now operating until the end of 2010 and is due to be extended until December 2012, with an option to go on until 2014.
"We look forward to several more years of operational effectiveness for the mission, which will provide even more scientific results. Cluster is providing some of the best returns on investment ever seen in an ESA mission," says Volpp.
Editor's Note: Media are invited to a briefing on the occasion of ten years of scientific discovery by Cluster at ESOC, ESA's European Space Operations Centre, Darmstadt, Germany, on 1 September 2010, 11:00–12:00 CEST. Doors open at 10:30. More information and registration here.

DWTS 13 Champ J.R. Martinez Talks With Tim Tebow And Sherri Shepherd About Dancing
Celebuzz is reporting J.R. Martinez was in Indianapolis over the weekend for the Super Bowl. He got to mingle with some celebrities some of which included Denver Bronco Tim Tebow. He talked to Tim as well as The View's Sherri Shepherd while in New York City recently ….both rumored contenders to dance on Dancing With The Stars. Here's a quote for what they told him about dancing on the show….
…J.R. revealed, "I actually did come across Tim Tebow, and we chatted about [Dancing With the Stars] for a second. I thought he'd do pretty well on the show!"
But does that mean Tim is actually up for the task? Not so fast, according to J.R.
"He said, 'Maybe in a year' … That's pretty much what he said."
As for who J.R. would personally like to see on the show, the military vet, who recently teamed with The Phoenix Society to help raise awareness for burn victims, has his sights set on one of daytime's most popular ladies.
"I think Sherri Shepherd from 'The View' would be good," he said. "We talked about it a couple times when I was still in New York. I think she'd do good on it."
You can read the full story at Celebuzz.
Very interesting! Once again, I would not be surprised if Sherri dances for Season 14.
